Her brother Hector Mejia and her sister in law 17 year old Lizzemy Guiterrez were along with her.

The massive impact killed Kendra while Guiterrez complained of pain to the back, hip and right foot while Hector received a cut wound to both feet, right knee, a cut to the left eye and upper lip, and bruises to the left side. Kendra's body was taken to the morgue while both Guiterrez and Hector were taken to the KHMH. Guttierez is stable and Mejia has been discharged.
